A couple of hours ago receive a hard knock on the door. I answered the door and about 7 or 8 agents all flashing badges (claiming to be FBI and/or CIA) rushed me and pushed me against the far wall.
My dog attacked and they would have shot him had I not broken free for a second and covered him by laying him on the floor beneath me.
After things calmed down a bit and I received assurances that nothing would happen to him if I placed him in the bedroom and closed the door.
I did so and they then read me my rights and explained that my opinions expressed on Free Republic were the reason they were there. I had expressed my opinion of what I thought of the current President and the majority in congress and was therefore a potential threat to the government. After what seemed to be hours they came to the conclusion (I hope) that I was merely expressing my opinion and not a leader of a counter revolutionary army - as they saw it.
They searched my apartment for weapons and found 4 (which I have not fired in over a year or more) and they seized them for testing. My dog (Ranger) was not happy with the situation so I had to hold on to him during the search to keep him from being shot.
They also seized my computer and downloaded my entire files system. I suppose they also copied any files erased by normal erasure techniques. They returned the computer as "WAS" (as far as I can tell) but I after careful consideration the past few hours I have concluded that they are monitoring me closely.
I'm not even sure this message will make it through but what else can I do but try?
If (Big IF!) this does make it through, beware. They are watching and may make a visit to your residence and give your the same routine.
It really shook me up and I have trouble keeping my nerves steady and my thoughts straight as I write this message.
Once this gets out (IF THIS GETS OUT) I can pretty much expect their return but this time they probably won't be quite as considerate of myself and my dog who they will probably shoot on sight.
I have packed my truck with essentials but I suspect that there are those that are watching so I may not make it to one of my favorite mountain camping sites.
There I will not have any communications except when I get into town and use WIFI to make any contact.
Good luck and keep your heads down.
They have become serious about enforcing their new powers - and some of us might not make it.
I'll probably be #1 on their list.
Semper Fi and God Bless one and all.

He’s gonna be so embarrassed when he finds out he left his computer logged on and someone took liberty with it.
Long-time FReeper started this thread, said his apartment got tossed by the FBI or the CIA. We've been kind of mocking him out -- well, all except for maybe two who thought he might be on the level -- he got zotted for about five minutes, and then de-zotted. Thread's attracted a lot of management attention. That's the short version.
[Yup. I just hope that he’s ok.]
My memory isn’t worth a darned anymore but I remember thinking ‘he’ might be ‘oriental’ or something from some of his posts at the bottom of his profile page.
Thank you very much. She’s a great doctor, though just a registered nurse. She’s a wound care specialist and really knows her stuff. Actually, there are two of them working as a team and they’re great! They told me they had three goals when we started the treatments. The first was to reduce the pain, then control the swelling, then stop the water leakage. The pain has been greatly reduced, the swelling is under control and the drainage has completely stopped. Now they’re saying they didn’t dare hope that the ten year old wound would actually heal, but I guess they just didn’t realize the awesome power of prayer. Now they believe the healing is well underway. Praise God.
We also had a FReeper murdered that was working on something. Being a conservative can be dangerous.
They read him his rights, but didnt arrest him? This whole story sounds like a load of crap.
[The account is active]
Yes, I saw it both before and after and posted about the changes in it. It will be really interesting if ‘he’ ever posts again!
I remember that but don’t recall the details. I know I would have read everything about it at the time.
We just never know, do we?
I missed that one.
"If we were going to arrest you, we'd have to inform you that you have the right to remain silent, and that anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law... but we're not going to arrest you, we just want to look around your apartment and maybe shoot your dog."
Thailand?
So glad you’re doing well. God bless

I was going to ask what a jong altsr is.
Hmmm......well, if I'm reading that correctly, he posted about twice in every three days during his tenure here.
That may put my 'sleeper troll' theory to rest. Still, this last post of his is pretty strange, and incredible. I have no idea what to make of it, unless he just decided to opus out with a mystery.
He was at his desk and apparently someone broke in. A fire was set but all that burned was where he was. I believe there were signs of a fight.
A Magnum Opus, a CIA hit, an FBI raid, animal cruelty, account hacking, computer confiscation, truck packing, a quick move from Arizona to Alabama, homing devices, tin foil, weapons taking, skepticism, ridicule, unquestioning belief, anal probes...and more.
I didn’t realize he was murdered. Oh my....
It’s “jon galt sr”
